And, at the Star Wars Celebration, Jiang just flat out gestures to Yen and says that his character dies.

Gwendoline Christie (Game of Thrones, Star Wars: The Force Awakens) was moderating the panel discussion and quickly tried to shut things down. But the damage had already been done.

Knowing that his character dies doesn’t really tell us much other than that. We know the Rebels are going to battle. So, unfortunately, it does make sense that some of them won’t make it. But it’s still a HUGE spoiler!

They are so fun! And! As reported by IGN, Star Wars Rebels co-creator and executive producer Dave Filoni has said that the Battle Droids in Rebels are going to be “way better than the ones [he] had in Clone Wars.”

At the Star Wars Celebration in London, Filoni had this to say about the new Battle Droids:

“There’s several funny things about the Battle Droids. They first is they’re actually way better than the ones I had in Clone Wars.”

He also added that these Battle Droids in Rebels are going to be much more traditional looking. “…We decided not to overstylize them differently,” Filoni said. “So we were a lot more true to their head shape, even more like Doug Chiang’s original concept Battle Droids. So I love the way they look.”

So stoked.
